Description
Named for Pedro Gonz�lez de Mendoza. Mendoza was the chief confidant of the Spanish monarchs Isabelle and Ferdinand, the same monarchs who financed Columbus' 1492 voyages. This brandy is aged in American oak casks that have been previously used for Pedro Xim�nez Sherry and old Oloroso Sherry wines. With aromas of spun sugar, dried plum, chocolate and coffee bean, this dry, ripe, rich brandy is smooth as glass. It's full bodied with a long, lush finish.

Tasting Notes
Sweet and spicy aromas of dried figs, nutmeg, mace, and roasted chestnuts. The palate is figgy and nutty, with nicely balanced sweetness and spiciness. The texture is rich and thick. Long lasting flavors of spices, raisins and pecans. Special Designation: Excellent. Highly Recommended. Score - 93. (Ultimate Spirits Challenge, April 2014)
